The triangular 3-prism is cut with 6 internal planes defined by all 3-vertex combinations of its 6 vertices. This leads to the creation of seventeen 4-faced polyhedra and one 6-faced polyhedra, eighteen pieces in all. The single 6-faced polyhedra lies at the very center of the original 3-prism.
The 9-prism is cut with 207 internal planes leading to the creation of 319864 pieces. It is noteworthy in creating all k-faced polyhedra from k=4 to k=18.

a(3) = 8. The 3-antiprism is cut with 3 internal planes resulting in 8 polyhedra, all 8 pieces having 4 faces.
a(4) = 195. The 4-antiprism is cut with 16 internal planes resulting in 195 polyhedra; 128 with 4 faces, 56 with 5 faces, 8 with 6 faces, and 3 with 8 faces. Note the number of 8-faced polyhedra is not a multiple of 4 - they lie directly along the z-axis so are not symmetric with respect to the number of edges forming the regular n-gons.

The elongated 5-bipyramid has 12 vertices, 25 edges and 15 faces (5 squares and 10 equilateral triangles). It is cut by 112 internal planes defined by any three of its vertices, resulting in the creation of 43730 polyhedra.
The 11 faced polyhedra are unusual in that all 10 are visible on the surface; most polyhedra cut with their own planes have the resulting polyhedra with the most faces near the center of the original polyhedra and are thus not visible on its surface.
No polyhedra with 12 or more faces are created.
